National assets shall, in principle, become federal assets. The general rule is to have those assets decentralized into four (4) separate operations/entities.
Insofar as such assets were originally intended to be used principally for administrative tasks not entrusted to the Federation under this Basic Law, they shall be transferred without compensation to the authorities now entrusted with such tasks.
To the extent that such assets are now being used for administrative tasks that under this Basic Law are now performed by the cantons, they shall be transferred to the cantons. The Federation may also transfer other assets to the cantons.
Assets that were placed at the disposal of the Republic of Lebanon by religious communities Wakf or municipalities or associations of municipalities shall revert to those canton or municipalities or associations of municipalities insofar as the Federation does not require them for its own administrative purposes, in which case it shall negotiate their use with the cantonal Government.
